Footnotes:
1
Area: Metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) are designated by the Office of Management and Budget. MSAs generally cover one or more entire counties
or county equivalents or New England City and Town Area (NECTA) in the six New England states. Each MSA is listed under the state in which the
largest part of its population lives, even though the first (most populous) city in the MSA’s name may be in an adjoining state. There are 11 MSAs with
more than 2,500,000 people. Employment in these MSAs is presented in two or more Div.s (Div.) or subDiv.s, rather than for the MSA as a whole.

2
Industry: The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports employment for construction, mining and logging combined for six states, the District of
Columbia and MSAs in which mining and logging have only a small number of employers. To facilitate comparisons between MSAs and the states they
are in, AGC has calculated combined employment change in states for which BLS reports the industries separately.

3
Rank: BLS currently provides construction (or combined construction, mining and logging) employment data for 337 metro areas. AGC calculated
ranks based on the 12-month percent change, rounded to the nearest whole percent. Because BLS reports employment rounded to the nearest 100, it
is not possible to calculate percent changes more accurately than to the nearest whole percent. Thus, all metro areas with the same whole-percent
change in employment are ranked the same.
